20.Gut Twisting

After he enters into my room from behind me I abruptly shut the door and begin pacing. he looks at me strange before sitting down on my bed

"What?" he says confused. What if I tell him and he tells the guards or doctor Choi? Should I wait to tell after his meeting with him? Do I even think this is a good idea?

"I need to tell you something and you can't freak and you definitely can't tell anyone, obviously" I say sitting down on the bed beside him.

"Do you think they mic our rooms?" I whisper and he shrugs

I roll my eyes before grabbing his hand and rushing him out of the room to the washroom, abruptly opening the door. Thank god Hyunjin isn't still in here. I pull him back to the showers before turning them all on full blast to try and drown out any sound just incase they have the building mic'd

"This seems dramatic" he yells over the sound of the showers

"It's not" I say getting close to him to whisper

"Hyunjin has an escape plan" I whisper in his ear and he looks at me strange

"We have to get out, they have started threatening to hurt us, we can't stay here and I think we can actually do it"

"We're going to get caught" he says unconvinced

"We have to try, we can't just die here and we can't do it without all of us, they will just use anyone left to track us down" I say and he rolls her eyes

"I don't know Felix this sounds risky" he says

"We can uproot the earth tomorrow during outside time and form a tunnel under the fence. There's a road not too far away we can find a car and get away" I say and I can tell he isn't completely against it

"Don't you want to see your sister again? I think I owe my parents to at least try and find a way out and not just get old and die here" I say and I can see the guilt growing on his face.

"I'll talk to Minho" he says simply before pulling away from me and leaving? My stomach goes back to twisting. Ugh this is awful.

I turn the showers off before exiting out into the hallway. I walk past Hyunjin's rooms and his door is shut? I walk towards it before knocking then opening it to find him sitting back into his bed with his back against the wall.

"I told Jisung" I say and he nods

"Good" he says simply? He doesn't have any questions?

"What are you doing" I say shutting the door behind me as he looks over at me

"Control" he says watching me. I slowly cross the room and sit down on the bed beside him. He looks over at me for a moment longer before looking back down at his empty palm as a flame appears.

I watch as it goes from a wild flair to a straight line as he controls its form making it skinnier and taller as it grows.

"How hot can you go" I say and he looks down at me before focusing again. Suddenly the flame grows to a blue purple flame as it rages in his palm.

Moments later the flair goes out and the flames roll smoothly across the surface of his hand as it creates a layer moving like the ocean "That's cool" I say softly and he grins before putting it out completely. I reach over and run my fingers along his palm and it feels hot to the touch, I don't know what else I would be expecting

I take my hand back and sit back against the wall beside him now.

"Do you think your family is still out there looking for you?" I say softly after a moment, looking out his window littered with Steel bars.

He looks over at me but doesn't say anything.

"What are we going to do if we get out" I say changing the subject after another long moment of silence

"Get out of Seoul hopefully" he says looking down at his palm "we should probably split up" he says and I shoot my eyes up at him. He didn't mention that earlier. I don't know if I can go by myself and not get caught.

"Why" I say confused

"If we're all together we're making it easy for them to find us" he says

"And if we are in 4 different places their chances of finding us are increased and if they find one they find us all, we should be together" I say almost panicked now

He looks over at me clearly reading my uneasiness

"Maybe" he says simply.

My mind starts racing about how this wasn't the best plan and if we split up this won't work when he lifts his hand and places it in mine softly, completely erasing my train of thought.

A few moments pass as he looks down at me into my eyes before suddenly getting up out of the bed, still holding my hand as he pulls me up with him out of his bed.

"Supper" he says before releasing my hand as he walks to the door and opens it leading me out to the dining room,

I sit down in my normal spot as Jisung looks back and forth between me and Hyunjin. My stomach sinks to the thought that he could've told Dr, Choi while in testing.

But he doesn't say anything.

Supper is served and we eat in silence when Jisung looks over to me suddenly.

"We're watching a movie tonight" he says and I look up at him and nod. Okay?

"Good" he says before going back to eating. Minho looks at both of us strange but doesn't mention anything. Does he know yet? Probably not.
